  45. Posted by Roel

    Whenever i login to the permanent delete page, my account is re-instated.
    So I go to the de-activation process again and . . . to the permanent delete page . . .
    i login and the account is . . . yep . . . activated again.

    So i de-activated it fot the third time and i will leave it like that.

    Hopefully it will never become active again. And i will not try to login to check 😉

    If I deleted the Facebook permanently.. Can I sign up with the same email again for a new account?

  55. Posted by facebook australia facebook features

    You can target your ads to a specific age, group or region
    using your Facebook page. The problem with blessings and
    lessons is you never know which category
    any particular experience falls into. I was
    really taken back by the growth and exposure this page was getting and witnessed it continue to
    grow to a stage where it reached over 1 million members in just
    5 days.
